<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Dear all,<br><br></div>Yesterday I installed paraview v5.3 using the binaries from the website on my Linux (ubuntu) OS. The steps followed are (they my influence on the final result):<br><ol><ol><li>Download the binaries from <a href="http://www.paraview.org" rel="nofollow">http://www.paraview.org</a>. For me this results in: ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit.<span class="gmail-skimlinks-unlinked">tar.gz</span></li><li>Extract and copy them:<br>
<blockquote><p>tar xzvf -C /opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit.<span class="gmail-skimlinks-unlinked">tar.gz</span><br>
sudo emacs ~/.bashrc</p></blockquote>
</li><li>then insert the following line, save & close<br>
<blockquote><p>export PATH=$PATH:/opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/bin/</p></blockquote></li></ol></ol></div>Then I created a symbolic link:</div><div><p> sudo ln -s /opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/bin/paraview /usr/bin/paraview</p>
<p> sudo ln -s /opt/ParaView-5.3.0-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit/lib/paraview-5.3/ /usr/lib/paraview-5.3</p><p></p></div><div>Before installing paraview from the binaries files I was using the version from Ubuntu repositories (paraview version 5.0 [I think]). Also I was using a python script which uses paraview to take some snapshoots and it worked really well. The problem is that now, when I want to use this python script, it reports this message:</div><div><br></div><div>"from paraview.simple import *<br>ImportError: No module named paraview.simple"</div><div><br></div><div>I have made some searches on the Internet and I found a web page about this problem: <a href="https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/EnvironmentSetup">https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/EnvironmentSetup</a><br></div><div>I have copied and pasted those sentences on my .bashrc file, restarted the computer but it still does not work.</div><div><br></div><div>Could you please help me?<br></div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Guillermo S.<br></div><div><blockquote><p style="text-align:left"><br></p></blockquote></div></div>
